Team physician Dr. James Voos repaired damage to Chubb's left medial capsule, meniscus, and medial collateral ligament during surgery on Friday, the Browns said.
Chubb will have to undergo a second surgery in the coming months to repair his ACL.
The loss of Chubb is a major blow to the Browns (2-1), who have leaned on him the past few seasons.
He gained 106 yards in the season opener and had 64 on 10 carries against the Steelers before going down.
Following last week's win over Tennessee, Browns coach Kevin Stefanski hand delivered a game ball to Chubb at home.
